Upon hearing this, Qin Feng and Ning Yao looked over and saw a tall, handsome man walking slowly towards them.

The other person was dressed in a dark gray robe, with a dark blue belt with barbarian patterns and gold trim around his waist. He had long, flowing hair, bright, tiger-like eyes under his eyebrows, and a tall, slender figure. He appeared gentle and refined.

Qin Feng sized up the handsome man, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Mid-stage Heavenly Emperor Realm, God Race, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, it should be Mu Chen, one of the city lords of Wushuang City.

However, Mu Chen concealed his true cultivation level at this moment, only revealing his cultivation at the mid-stage of the Immortal Emperor realm.

Ning Yao looked at Mu Chen with a flicker in her eyes; she too could see that Mu Chen was hiding his true level of cultivation.

She had met Mu Chen once before, but the person in front of her looked nothing like the Mu Chen she remembered.

She observed carefully for a while and realized that the other party had used a supernatural power to change their appearance.

Although Ning Yao and Qin Feng both guessed Mu Chen's identity, neither of them revealed it.

Ning Yao smiled slightly. "Was I being arrogant just now?"

"I merely taught a lesson to an arrogant fool who didn't know his place!"

Mu Chen walked closer, his gaze fixed on Ning Yao's face, his brows slightly furrowed.

"You look familiar. Have we met somewhere before?"

Ning Yao smiled slightly. "It must be your imagination!"

When she met Mu Chen, the two didn't interact much; they only knew each other's identities.

The reason she remembered Mu Chen was simply because she glanced at him a couple of times because of his otherworldly demeanor.

Whether Mu Chen would recognize her or not remains to be seen.

After all, that happened thousands of years ago, a very long time ago.

"illusion?"

Mu Chen frowned slightly. At his level, it was unlikely that he would easily have a misconception.

However, he didn't dwell on it and instead got back to the main topic.

"Fellow Daoist, you have committed violence and broken the rules in Wushuang City, and you must be punished!"

"I hope you can cooperate and not force me to take action!"

Ning Yao looked at Mu Chen with interest. "Oh? How do you plan to punish me?"

Mu Chen said decisively, "You only need to cut off your own arm to leave!"

Ning Yao smiled mockingly. "An arm for a life, not bad at all!"

"You're not qualified to punish me!"

Mu Chen's gaze sharpened as he stared intently at Ning Yao, scrutinizing her.

After a while, his brows furrowed, and his expression shifted between light and dark.

"I can't even see through your cultivation level. Could you be a Heavenly Emperor?"

He had previously assumed that Ning Yao was at most at the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm, so he hadn't investigated her carefully.

Now, upon seeing it, he was shocked. With his cultivation at the mid-stage of the Heavenly Emperor Realm, he was unable to see through Ning Yao's cultivation level.

There is only one possibility in this situation: Ning Yao's cultivation level is above his.

At least at the peak of the Heavenly Emperor Realm!

Only those at the peak of the Heavenly Emperor realm could possibly be unable to see through it.

Ning Yao gave a half-smile. "Is it because my cultivation level is above yours that you dare not punish me?"

Mu Chen's expression gradually darkened; he was now in a dilemma.

If we leave like this, what will become of the prestige of Wushuang City?

But if he were to force a fight, he wasn't confident he could defeat Ning Yao.

Furthermore, if a Heavenly Emperor Realm expert were to make a move, the entire city of Wushuang might be reduced to ruins.

After a while, Mu Chen had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​taking action.

"Fellow Daoist, you jest. Your strength far surpasses mine, so how could I dare to fight you?"

"You're such a hypocrite!" Ning Yao glanced at Mu Chen and called him out directly.

"If I'm not mistaken, you must be Mu Chen, one of the city lords of Wushuang City, right?"

"Do you really think that by hiding your true cultivation level, no one can tell?"

"Tsk tsk, changing your appearance and cultivation level on your own turf, what exactly are you trying to do?"

Mu Chen stared at Ning Yao in shock. He couldn't believe that Ning Yao had seen through his true cultivation level and guessed his true identity.

Although he couldn't believe it, the facts were right in front of him, leaving him no choice but to believe it.

"Who exactly are you?"

Mu Chen looked at Ning Yao with suspicion and uncertainty. The more he looked at her, the more familiar she seemed, as if he had seen her somewhere before.

He had only met Ning Yao briefly thousands of years ago, and his memory of her was hazy, making it difficult for him to recall her now.

Ning Yao didn't reply, but said indifferently, "If you don't dare to make a move, then please step aside."

Upon hearing this, Mu Chen hesitated for a moment, then frowned and turned to leave.

Since you dare not make a move, why stay here and humiliate yourself?

After Mu Chen had walked a distance, Qin Feng spoke with a flicker in his eyes, "There's something strange about this person!"

Ning Yao was taken aback by his words and asked suspiciously, "What's strange about it?"

Qin Feng smiled slightly. "I just sensed demonic energy within him, hidden very well, making it difficult to detect!"

"If I'm not mistaken, the demonic energy within him is emanating from a demonic seed."

"A demonic seed?" Ning Yao was stunned for a moment, then her face darkened.

"Damn demons, what are they plotting?"

"First it was the Bear Clan, and now it's Mu Chen!"

"If Mu Chen has a demonic seed within him, then what about Yao Yue, the other city lord of Wushuang City?"

"What about their men?"

When she thought of the demon race, she was reminded of the tens of thousands of bears who had been corrupted by demons.

Even now, thinking about it still makes her shudder, and a chill runs down her spine.

If Qin Feng hadn't single-handedly turned the tide, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Qin Feng glanced at Ning Yao and smiled. "Since we're here, let's make the best of it. What the demons are plotting has little to do with us."

"At least until I break through to the Ancient Emperor Realm, I should not easily get into conflict with the Demon Clan or their pawns."

"I don't want to attract that Demon Lord from the Demon Realm again!"

Ning Yao was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled. "I really didn't expect you to be afraid too?"

"Smack!"

Qin Feng suddenly slapped Ning Yao on the bottom.

"Ning Yao, is this how you talk to your master?"

What did I do wrong with my attitude?

Ning Yao felt extremely aggrieved, but she had no choice but to bow her head. "Master, I was wrong!"

"Smack!"

Qin Feng slapped Ning Yao's bottom again, his face stern as he questioned, "What did you do wrong?"

Ning Yao gritted her teeth and said, feeling aggrieved, "I shouldn't have mocked you!"

"That's more like it!" Qin Feng pouted. "This is the kind of awareness you should have as a maid, understand?"

"I understand!" Ning Yao wanted to cry, and she also wanted to strangle Qin Feng.

He would slap her butt whenever he had the chance, as if he had already used her butt as a means of venting his anger.

She was furious, but what could she do?

Life and death are in Qin Feng's hands!

Unless she wanted to die, she had no choice but to bow her head and endure the humiliation.

At this moment, Qin Feng suddenly frowned and said in a somewhat serious tone.

"Ning Yao, how much do you know about the Asura Sea?"

Ning Yao was a little confused when she heard this. "Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

"Did you discover something?"
